Director Chad Stahelski is expanding the world of assassins and gold coins with some famous new faces. John's reluctant ally Sofia is played by Halle Berry and Anjelica Huston performs the Director of the Ruska Roma society. Asia Kate Dillon is the Adjudicator, Mark Dacascos is hitman Zero, Jerome Flynn embodies the Master of Coin and French actor Saïd Taghmaoui (of Berber ancestry from Essaouira) plays the Elder.

The Continental Hotel essentially became another character in the in the film. Once more, the exteriors were filmed in the Beaver Building in New York, which hosts a Haru Sushi restaurant. There are a few shots of the entrance hall located in the Cunard Building, also in Manhattan.

The Hotel continues to expand in every installment with new rooms and areas. The lounge and the bar of the hotel in John Wick 3 is The Williamsburgh Savings Bank. This impressive neoclassical building was designed like a temple to finance and it has been transformed into an event space (it houses the Brooklyn Flea Market).Image courtesy of Lionsgate and Eric Allix Rogers / Map

According to American Cinematographer, the manager’s office two-story glass-and-steel structure on the top floors of the hotel was constructed at Gold Coast Studios in Long Island. Also the Continental’s terrace at the end of the movie was built in the studio, as the Rockefeller Center rooftop used in Chapter 2 was not convenient for the filmmakers to control the lighting.

We found and selected some very interesting items to help understand why the John Wick movie series have reached the status of semi-cult movies. For instance, someone has produced a replica of the Blood Oath Marker coins used in the film!
Look at the price of this bloody variant of a Funko vinyl figure. There is an incredibly detailed and beautifully packaged re-edited Blue Ray edition. Also you can get your hands on one of these cool movie posters.
